From the Diary of an Almost 4-Year Old By Hanan Mikhael Ashrawi Tomorrow the bandages will come off, I wonder, will I see half an oven? Half an apple? Half my mother's face with my one remaining eye? I did not see the bullet But felt its pain exploding in my head. his image did not disintegrate. The soldier with his big gun and steady hands. And the look in his eyes I could not understand. I can see him so clearly with my eyes closed, It could be that inside our heads. We each have one spare set of eyes To make up for the ones we lose. Next month, on my birthday, I'll have a brand new glass eye Maybe things will look round and fat at the middle. I gaze through all my marbles, They make the world look strange. I hear a nine-month-old has also lost an eye, I wonder if my soldier shot her too, A soldier looking for little girls who look him in the eye. I'm old enough, almost four, I've seen enough of life But she's just a baby Who didn't know any better.

A Palestinian boy
was shot in the head
Earlier in school
He didn’t expect
WHY?
Because he is a
terrorist, that’s why
He has to know that throwing stones
will only mean breaking his bones
They are terrorists and the world must know
in front of kids, we don’t shoot
low
With a shot to the head, or to the
back
In any demonstration
We’ll shoot back
These violent boys just make
you ill
How many more we must kill ?
We’ll kill ’em all, Sharon
said
We can definitely defeat a bunch of
kids
Hey America, we need more aid
Our weapons are not up to date
We face grave danger from boys so
young
And we only have some tanks and guns
We will kill them old
And will kill them young
With a shot to the head
Or to the lung
Shoot this boy
And these two
And while we’re at it
Let’s kill these too
THE FACTS
Nearly 2000 Palestinians were killed in the past
yearmost of them are under the
age of 15
Nearly 25,000 Palestinians were seriously injured
Please help us protect our children from the zionist
jews
